Product Description

 
The Whistler 1788 stay on 100% of the time for total radar and laser protection. Other cordless units go into a "sleep mode" to save on battery life which cuts down on performance. The Whistler 1788 has rechargeable batteries and a built in battery charger so it does not need a "sleep mode" to save on battery life.

Date of Review:  Feb 3, 2006
The Bottom Line: There are plenty of other models to choose from. Don't stop here unless the cordless factor is a big deal to you.
Review: It's a little larger than I'm used to in a detector, but it is still workable for a truck or SUV. It has a blue backlit display with a black text LCD. The silver accents and chrome plastic buttons are a nice touch. I purchased this unit from...
